The Layered Architecture

The LIØNSBERG Wiki is built in layers — top-down for the pilgrim, bottom-up for the corpus:

The Seed (Threshold). README.md — The Golden Seed of LIØNSBERG. The single shared link, the first crossing. Stage 1 of The 12-Stage Pilgrim's Path.

The Experience (Gateway). The LIØNSBERG Experience and its anchor companion Welcome to LIØNSBERG. The wayfinding spine. The Pilgrim's Path that moves a being through the corpus, in the order it actually opens.

The Codex (Corpus). The LIØNSBERG Sacred Codex and its Volumes. The bound, complete, printable corpus. The DNA of the New Civilization in source form.

The Living Substrate. Every other page in the Wiki. Each lives within a Volume or in service of one. Pattern entries, Lexicon entries, Plays, Quests, supporting articulation, archived precursors — all of it.

The pilgrim experiences the architecture top-down — from the Seed inward through the Experience to the Volume that serves the moment.

The Wiki is organized bottom-up — every page either lives inside a Volume or serves one.

Top-down and bottom-up meet in the canonical middle.

This is the architectural decision that gives the Wiki coherence at every scale.
